Old House, Da Ronghe, and Red Apricot Restaurant are the first choice restaurants for banquets in old Chengdu, and they are also the Sichuan cuisine restaurant groups that began to lay out chain branches in Chengdu earlier. Founded in 1997, the old house has branches in Chengdu, Leshan, Mianyang, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Wuhan, Kunming, Lijiang and other places, and in 2015, it opened its stores in Lisbon, Portugal, and all stores are directly operated.
After years of operation, the old house now divides Sichuan cuisine into three different styles, including Yuannian Restaurant, Garden Restaurant and Folk Style Restaurant, with different catering positioning. Yuannian Restaurant is the most high-end restaurant, surrounded by mountains and rivers, small bridges and flowing water, its dishes are more integrated, and the ingredients are the most scarce, suitable for banquets. The Garden Restaurant has added a lot of home-cooked dishes, and the spicy taste is more prominent, and there is no lack of spicy and fragrant flavors such as cold rabbit and Huoxiang crucian carp. The Republic of China restaurant is decorated in the style of the Republic of China, and the dishes overlap with the garden restaurant, which is also closer to the Sichuan flavor and more suitable for friends gatherings.
The selection of dishes in the old house is extremely rich, frying, stir-frying, cooking, and frying are all available, although there are not too many representative dishes, but it also makes the dishes of the old house extremely stable, and the taste is suitable for most people. The signature Liuhe fish is a classic dish of the old house, its taste is a fusion of sour, spicy, fresh and fragrant, the addition of Laotan kimchi and Yunnan millet spicy is to make the fish taste after cooking, the fish is fresh and tender, and the taste of ordinary boiled fish is different. As an indispensable ingredient for Sichuan-style hot pot and string incense, yellow throat also has an important weight in Sichuan cuisine. Fresh yellow throat with hot pot flavor soup base, yellow throat is fragrant and crispy, spicy but not dry.
In addition to the variety of Sichuan dishes to choose from, many other dishes can also be seen in the old house, such as Peking duck, salmon sashimi, Parma ham, etc., and diners can also try them.
A restaurant-style restaurant like an old house has a large business area, and there are enough choices for both individual tables and private rooms. Many private rooms are equipped with rest areas and automatic mahjong machines for guests to enjoy, which is also more down-to-earth. Private rooms in older houses usually do not need to be booked in advance, but it is recommended to book in advance for large banquets or large multi-purpose private rooms.
